Minor issue with sqlite3 and datetime
Hi all I could not find a mailing list for sqlite3 - hope it is ok to post here. My problem actually originates with a different problem relating to MS Sql Server. Python's datetime.datetime object uses a precision of microseconds. Sql Server's DATETIME type only uses a precision of milliseconds. When I try to insert a datetime object into a DATETIME column, the microsecond portion is rejected, but the rest succeeds, so the object is stored to the nearest second. My current workaround is, instead of inserting the datetime object directly, I use the following - dtm = dtm.isoformat(sep=' ')[:23] This converts it to a string, and strips off the last three digits of the microseconds, converting them to milliseconds. It is not elegant, but it works. I also use PostgreSQL and sqlite3. I don't want to code different routines for each one, so I use the same workaround for all three. It works with PostgreSQL, but not with sqlite3. Here is why. sqlite3/dbapi2.py contains the following - def convert_timestamp(val): [...] if len(timepart_full) == 2: microseconds = int(timepart_full[1]) else: microseconds = 0 It assumes that 'timepart_full[1]' is a string containing 6 digits. After my workaround, it only contains 3 digits, so it gives the wrong result. I think that it should right-pad the string with zeroes to bring it up to 6 digits before converting to an int, like this - microseconds = int('{:06}'.format(timepart_full[1])) Any chance of this being accepted?

This is not an abstraction at all, but merely a poor explanation of how things work in Java. Your last statement is totally incorrect, as no copying of the object occurs whatsoever. The reference is merely reseated to refer to the new object. If you're going to chide me for ignoring the difference between the reference and the referent object, then you shouldn't ignore it either, especially in the one case where it actually matters! If we try to extend this to other languages, then it breaks down completely. With shallow copy I meant exactly that. I didn't think that my using the term with a more general meaning would cause such a reaction. It has a very strict, well-defined meaning in these contexts, especially in languages such as C++. In C++ it's called memberwise copy (see the C++ spec), which is not equivalent to Java's shallow copy, thanks to copy constructors. So you're saying that I said that Primitive constructs are references. Right... No, still wrong. You said: You have the first statement backwards. References are a primitive construct, not the other way around. The other way around is Primitive construct are references, but I never said that. What I said is correct, References are a form of primitive construct. In C, an int is a primitive but not a reference. An int* is a pointer (reference), and is also (essentially) a primitive. I never said it isn't. While true, it's still a bad way to think about what's going on. It breaks down once we add C++ / Pascal reference types to the mix, for example. ? Assignment to a C++ reference (T) effects the underlying object, not the reference itself. A reference can never be reseated once it is bound to an object. Comparing equality on two references directly is the same as comparing two values (it calls operator==). Comparing identity requires doing (x ==y), like one would do with a value. However, unlike a value, the object is not destroyed when the reference goes out of scope. Most importantly, references to base classes do not slice derived class objects, so virtual calls work correctly through references. As a result, normally the right way to think about a value is as a temporary name for an object and not worry about any of the details about how the language makes it work. If you add C++ references to Java, the abstraction breaks down too, so I don't see your point. Equality or equivalence is a relation which is: - reflexive - symmetric - transitive Everything else... is something else. Call it semi-equality, tricky-equality or whatever, but not equality, please. Sure, but then it's illegal to allow the usage of '==' with floating point numbers, which will never have these properties in any usable implementation[1]. ??? The operator == is called the equality operator. Floating-point numbers don't really obey those properties in any meaningful fashion. I say they do. Any counter-examples? The result is that portions of your view contradict others. Either we must give '==' a different name, meaning what you consider equality is irrelevant, or we must use method names like 'equals', which you find objectionable. If anything, you have that backwards. Look at Python: all variables in Python have pointer semantics, not value semantics. When everything is white, the word white becomes redundant. So the fact that everything in Python have reference semantics means that we can't stop thinking about value and reference semantics. Nope. The behavior of variables is absolutely essential to writing correct programs. If I write a program in Python that treats variables as if they were values, it will be incorrect. You misunderstood what I said. You wouldn't treat variables as if they were values because you wouldn't even know what that means and that that's even a possibility. Well, one hopes that is true. I think we have a misunderstanding over language: you said value and reference semantics when you really meant value vs. reference semantics. Ok. I've never heard an old C programmer talk about value semantics and reference semantics. When everything is a value, your world is pretty simple. Except if that were true, the comp.lang.c FAQ wouldn't have this question and answer: http://c-faq.com/ptrs/passbyref.html, and several others. That's why I said an /old/ C programmer. Much as

Translation: kicking kicking is identical to kissing except that receiver is kicked instead of kissed. Superficial as always. Here's the part you misquoted: --- install install is followed by one or more packages desired for installation or upgrading. Each package is a package name, not a fully qualified filename (for instance, in a Debian GNU/Linux system, libc6 would be the argument provided, not libc6_1.9.6-2.deb). All packages required by the package(s) specified for installation will also be retrieved and installed. The /etc/apt/sources.list file is used to locate the desired packages. If a hyphen is appended to the package name (with no intervening space), the identified package will be removed if it is installed. Similarly a plus sign can be used to designate a package to install. These latter features may be used to override decisions made by apt-get's conflict resolution system. A specific version of a package can be selected for installation by following the package name with an equals and the version of the package to select. This will cause that version to be located and selected for install. Alternatively a specific distribution can be selected by following the package name with a slash and the version of the distribution or the Archive name (stable, testing, unstable). Both of the version selection mechanisms can downgrade packages and must be used with care. This is also the target to use if you want to upgrade one or more already-installed packages without upgrading every package you have on your system. Unlike the upgrade target, which installs the newest version of all currently installed packages, install will install the newest version of only the package(s) specified. Simply provide the name of the package(s) you wish to upgrade, and if a newer version is available, it (and its dependencies, as described above) will be downloaded and installed. Finally, the apt_preferences(5) mechanism allows you to create an alternative installation policy for individual packages. If no package matches the given expression and the expression contains one of '.', '?' or '*' then it is assumed to be a POSIX regular expression, and it is applied to all package names in the database. Any matches are then installed (or removed). Note that matching is done by substring so 'lo.*' matches 'how-lo' and 'lowest'. If this is undesired, anchor the regular expression with a '^' or '$' character, or create a more specific regular expression. remove remove is identical to install except that packages are removed instead of installed. Note the removing a package leaves its configuration files in system. If a plus sign is appended to the package name (with no intervening space), the identified package will be installed instead of removed. --- Kiuhnm -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Once the site is analyzed, which usually takes about a minute, the cache disappears. Multiple threads are reading multiple pages from the web site during that time. A local cache is enough to fix the huge overhead problem of doing a DNS lookup for every link found. One site with a vast number of links took over 10 hours to analyze before this fix; now it takes about four minutes. That solved the problem. We can probably get an additional minor performance boost with a real local DNS daemon, and will probably configure one.

My idea is to keep this as simple tool that will execute whathever it's asked for. On top of this server I plan to write some trading logic in Python - scripts that will trigger certain actions depending on situation on market. I planned to exchange text commands between the C++ server and Python scripts as Python is really good in parsing text and on server side Boost/STL also do the trick.

Conceptually, NaN is the class of all elements which are not numbers, therefore NaN = NaN. NaN isn't really the class of all elements which aren't numbers. NaN is the result of a few specific IEEE 754 operations that cannot be computed, like 0/0, and for which there's no other reasonable substitute (e.g., infinity) for practical applications . In the real world, if we were doing the math with pen and paper, we'd stop as soon as we hit such an error. Equality is simply not defined for the operations that can produce NaN, because we don't know to perform those computations. So no, it doesn't conceptually follow that NaN = NaN, what conceptually follows is the operation is undefined because NaN causes a halt. Mathematics is more than arithmetics with real numbers. We can use FP too (we actually do that!). We can say that NaN = NaN but that's just an exception we're willing to make. We shouldn't say that the equivalence relation rules shouldn't be followed just because *sometimes* we break them. This is what programming languages ought to do if NaN is compared to anything other than a (floating-point) number: disallow the operation in the first place or toss an exception. If you do a signaling floating point comparison on IEEE floating point numbers, you do get an exception. On some FPUs, though, signaling operations are slower. On superscalar CPUs, exact floating point exceptions are tough to implement. They are done right on x86 machines, mostly for backwards compatibility. This requires an elaborate retirement unit to unwind the state of the CPU after a floating point exception. DEC Alphas didn't have that; SPARC and MIPS machines varied by model. ARM machines in their better modes do have that. Most game console FPUs do not have a full IEEE implementation. Proper language support for floating point exceptions varies with the platform. Microsoft C++ on Windows does support getting it right. (I had to deal with this once in a physics engine, where an overflow or a NaN merely indicated that a shorter time step was required.) But even there, it's an OS exception, like a signal, not a language-level exception. Other than Ada, which requires it, few languages handle such exceptions as language level exceptions.

In one definition, that being the one defined by common sense of getting a reaction out of people, you in fact succeeded rather well by getting a reaction in general, though it was mostly mockery and heckling. In another definitions calling trolling an attempt at getting upset reactions specifically, I'd have to say there isn't so much of that unless your inquiry into who's trolling whom was because you felt as if you had been slighted by Jason's statement.

[issue6759] zipfile.ZipExtFile.read() is missing universal newline support
Serhiy Storchaka storch...@gmail.com added the comment: Support lines in zipfile looks contradictory and buggy. This complicates the code and makes the behavior of zipfile.ZipExtFile incompatible with the interface of other file-like objects. For example, the behavior of the read, read1 and peek differ from one described in io module. If we are working with binary data, conversion of newlines is meaningless (and how about newlines in comments?). If we are working with text, the bytes must be decoded to str. This will help io.TextIOWrapper. I suggest two alternatives: 1. Deprecate universal newline support in zipfile. zipfile.ZipExtFile should always work with non-modified bytes, and who need the text, let wraps zipfile.ZipExtFile with io.TextIOWrapper. 2. Automatically wrap a zipfile.ZipExtFile with io.TextIOWrapper if universal newlines mode is enabled. In this case, the data type will change from bytes to str. Add modes t and b to explicitly specify the data type. Add an encoding parameter (and other parameters if needed). -- nosy: +storchaka ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6759 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
